Question

Find the lateral area of the regular prism with height h, if the base of the prism is: Square with the side 2 cm and h=125 mm

Answer 1

Answer:

100cm.sq

Step-by-step explanation:

first do 4*2=8 thats the sides for the square. After, multiply by the height which is 125 mm. You will get 1000mm and since the answer is in cm convert it and it will become 100cm.

follow the steps just by arranging the values.

Answer 2

100 cm² is the lateral area of the regular prism

Given:

prism with a square base

base side = 2 cm

height = 125mm = 12.5 cm

To find:

The lateral surface area of the prism

Solution:

Since it is a regular prism all the sides of the base will be the same i.e 2cm

The base is square implies it has 4 sides

Therefore, there are a total of four lateral sides corresponding to each of the 4 base edges

let base side be 's' and height be 'h'

lateral area of one side = base side * height

                                      =  s * h

∴Total lateral surface area = 4sh

                                            = 4 * 2 * 12.5

                                            = 100 $cm^{2}$

The lateral area of the regular prism is 100 $cm^{2}$
